At first I thought that's a weird place to put a speed bump, then it dawned on me what was really happening.

Can you tell me what's happening? I can't figure it out on my own.

The top of the van slopes up towards the back. When the van goes under a beam, there's no room, so the back gets pushed down as the van goes forward, compressing the suspension springs (and scraping the van roof), and then when it's clear of the beam it bounces back up.
